What don’t I know about IB?

The purpose of this is to get some smaller known facts about IB across. Basic things such as slang, inside jokes, jokes about companies, stereotypes, finance jokes or literally anything an outsider of IB wouldn’t know about. Please try and keep it original, don’t just say “money doesn’t give up you happiness” or “hours are stupid”.

Edit: This post is nothing to do wit interviews, me tryna get a job or anything of the sort. I’m asking out of genuine desire to know.
